November 15, 2022 20:30 - 30 minutes - 20.8 MB

My Philadelphia Eagles lost their first game of the season last night… and I’ll tell you why I’m happy about it.  The markets are in rally mode as investors celebrate the latest inflation data.

A ‘red wave’ won’t save your portfolio

November 08, 2022 20:30 - 26 minutes - 18 MB

Happy Election Day! I hope you all get out and vote today, since, according to the mainstream media, our democracy is at risk…  I highlight how wild politics in this country have become… why I’m being labeled a “racist” and a “radical”... and what I wish we’d focus on instead of all the fear-mongering and hate. A split government is typically bullish for the markets… And a “red wave” would be good for business… But regardless of how the election turns out, it won’t save your portfolio—the onl...

November 03, 2022 19:30 - 38 minutes - 26.5 MB

Yesterday, the Fed held its November meeting and raised interest rates by 75 basis points.  We break down the market reaction to the Fed… why the Fed won’t pivot… an absurd comment Powell made during his press conference… why you need to brace for further downside… and how to rake in profits as that happens.

Results are in for Alphabet (GOOG) and Microsoft (MSFT). Daniel and I explain how a strong U.S. dollar is hurting these stocks… and why they don’t deserve to trade at current levels.

(Interestingly, though, crypto seems to be breaking away from tech stocks…) We recap why all the positive earnings results aren’t as good as they look… and share two strategies to profit from this bear market rally. In this epis...

Don’t be fooled by the positive earnings headlines

October 25, 2022 19:30 - 34 minutes - 23.9 MB

I just got back from a trip to Las Vegas with my wife. I highlight some of our adventures (including driving excavators)... and why the bustling Vegas economy is a bit of an anomaly. Stocks have been rallying thanks to better-than-expected results (so far) this earnings season. But the headlines aren’t telling the real story. I explain what’s behind the numbers… why this rally won’t last… and why investors need to brace for the downtrend to continue. But that doesn’t mean you should sell ever...

Use this rally to bet AGAINST the market

October 18, 2022 19:30 - 38 minutes - 26.8 MB

Markets are in rally mode, having risen a few percentage points in just days. But before you get too bullish, listen to what’s behind it…  On today’s show, I share why the strong start to earnings season is misleading... why the market isn’t as cheap as it looks… and why next year’s earnings estimates need to come way down.  My bearish thesis hasn't changed—and this mini rally gives us the perfect opportunity to bet against the market. Last week, I hosted an emergency briefing to share an ama...

October 11, 2022 19:30 - 29 minutes - 20.5 MB

On today’s show, I explain why the upcoming earnings season will be ugly—and why a market crash is imminent… How the Fed is using the wrong data to guide its decisions—and why it won’t be bailing out the markets anytime soon.

That’s why I’m hosting an urgent briefing tonight at 8 p.m ET—to share not only how to protect yourself… but make a fortune in the coming market crash. . In th...

The 2 sectors investors should focus on now

September 14, 2022 19:30 - 37 minutes - 25.7 MB

After yesterday’s market selloff, investors are processing a lot of negative news… I break down the details of the latest inflation numbers… why yesterday’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) data doesn’t paint an accurate picture of what’s really going on… and why the Fed should be focused on today’s Producer Price Index (PPI) numbers—which tell a completely different story.

How the Fed could force us into a depression

September 07, 2022 19:30 - 40 minutes - 27.5 MB

Fed members can’t help themselves: They continue to move markets with their speeches and seem dead-set on crashing every asset class. (And Daniel thinks the Fed is trolling me.)

I break down how hard and fast stocks will fall from current levels if the Fed follows through on this plan. In fact, it’s pushing us towards a ...

What I need to see to turn bullish…

I’m getting a lot of questions regarding , when I stated I’d gone bearish.  While data shows inflation is coming down—along with the price of oil (the sector with the largest impact on consumers)—the Fed seems hell-bent on more interest rate hikes.
